We needed for a family of 5 (from Holland) a stay for a few nights, relatively close to the airport, before going back home. The inviting and open way Tom described his house on AirBnB was very appealing to us. The first contact was quickly made, and all information I requested was provided.
The best part was Tom fetching us at the airport bus terminal, so much nicer than a taxi, and we immediately felt at home.
Tom's house is well equipped and has AC in 2 bedrooms, which is a must if you want a good night sleep in Bangkok.
Although we did not have much time to spend, Tom and his son did spend a lot of time with us, going to local market, diner at local restaurant, etc. Really highly appreciated, it made us feel very welcome.
Drawbacks? Not really, maybe swimming pool :) but that was not on our bucket list.
Thanks a lot Tom & family !
